Don't worry. Before I read the whole post my mind was seriously blown.

"WHAT!? How the f**k have we overlooked this!?"

No joke, haha.

Sorry, man, but I just don't see it. Those kanji just don't look like the word "the" to me. Is it like one of those Magic Eye things where I have to look "past" the letters to see it? :lol:

or Ninja THE gaiden, if you were one of the kids in my neighborhood that thought the japanese symbols were a cool way of writing "the".
I admit it looks similar, but the word "GAIDEN" right underneath it on the same line kind of is a gimme in my mind.

I think I've thought that since I was like 8. So... yeah. I don't think the 8 year old me knew what Kanji was. Oh well.
